Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. (Mouchet) Dictionnaire Portatif, Contenant Les Anecdotes Historiques De L'Amour, Depuis Le Commencement Du Monde Jusqu' À Ce Jour. Chez Buisson, Paris, 1788. Two volumes, iv, 564; 600, (ii)pp. Rebound in the mid-19th century in half calf and marbled boards, with raised bands, marbled endpapers an…d paste downs, and mostly untrimmed. Faults: the marbled boards are a little scuffed in the middle, and there are a few small scuffs to the spine and board edges. Also, a few of the ending leaves and beginning leaves have some very good and old repairs where the leaves were unevenly worn and replaced with appropriate paper edging--really a very good repair job, none of which affects the text on the few pages of repair. [++] Brunet 17891; Barbier 1, 3849. There was a third volume added in 1811, and by 1832 there were five volumes, all together--however as things stand here in 1788, this was complete at the time in the first edition.
